Big Data in Health: Agentic AI and the Future of Genomic Medicine
Dr Manuel Corpas | University of Westminster | Cellular & Molecular Pathology Guest Lecture
Recorded 25 March 2026
In this lecture I cover:
- How big data is transforming our understanding of health and disease
- The UK Biobank and national genome projects
- Why 86% of genomic data comes from European populations and what that means for everyone else
- The HEIM framework for measuring health equity in genomics
- What agentic AI means for bioinformatics: from weeks to hours
- ClawBio: open-source agentic skills for biology (400+ GitHub stars)
- The bias amplification cascade: how AI makes genomic inequality worse
- Pharmacogenomics and why your DNA determines your drug response
- Practical survival rules for the agentic era
This lecture bridges precision medicine, biobank science, and the agentic AI revolution transforming genomics research.
